lyrics

See me coming like a sharks fin…
Flee the sea when it parts then…
Feel me hit like a marksmen…
Shadows know me as the darkness…

Somewhere in this, you’ll find a suicide letter
With a bottle of jameson, but I didn’t drink it

I poured it down the drain again, dropped the bullet on the train
And let my monster out the cage to see if he could make a friend
And make amends with the torn corner of the paper
Trying live outside borders cornering the vapor
Life is what you make her, but I’m too afraid shape her
She’s perfect as is, from her purpose to her lips,
Nervously we kiss, and I mildly entertain her
Introverts make some of the wildest entertainers
But we’re chronic liars, we have to be to hide the
Fire that’s inside of us, cause in the cover-of smoke
Clouds it’s provided us with everything we know now...
But if we can learn to smile without being shown how
Then I can learn to breathe in a crowd…
But I skipped a lot of lessons and twisted messages
Often on purpose to be sure where leverage is if
You’re feeling nervous…triple check your measurements

A pony can be just as excellent as Pegasus
Cause being famous isn’t always all you guessed it is
A pessimist finally learning wha t depression is
When the saddest song on the record keeps getting spins
When the paint drips, and walls crumble down when
You can’t come to grips with the phantoms you found
Can’t remember shit but an echo of the sound
Probably meant to swim but someone let you drown
(x2)

When distorted eyes look at you like for 45’s…
Your demise fortified by the organized…
Ignore the lies and the cries put your swords aside…
We’re short on time I’m sure your fine but there’s a war and I’m
Fighting by my lonesome hopin’ the bluff’ll hold em
But it that was enough a puddle could make an ocean
When the eye opens, and the storm gets to focus
The ship seizes motions, stolen by hyponosis
The seal has been broken provokin’ new devotion a
Promotion’s in order we’ve been, walking on water gettin’,
Burned and we cauta-rize the wound the before the
Infection spread to unrest and some nausea
Make it on your own, without anything they taughtchya
Keep pushing on, as if someone forced ya
And caution, make sure to change up the course when
Your getting claustra-phobic feeling close in

A pony can be just as excellent as Pegasus
Cause being famous isn’t always all you guessed it is
A pessimist finally learning what depression is
When the saddest song on the record keeps getting spins
When the paint drips, and walls crumble down when
You can’t come to grips with the phantoms you found
Can’t remember shit but an echo of the sound
Probably meant to swim but only you can let you drown
